Alison McKnight
Life Coach, ADHD Coach
I’m a trauma-informed coach who supports ADHDers move forward from a space of shame, overwhelm, and people-pleasing to a more grounded connection with themselves and others. In my work, I weave together nervous-system regulation, body-based awareness, and practical tools for communication, boundaries, and executive functioning. I offer a warm, collaborative, and non-judgmental space where I meet you where you’re at, honour your pacing, and support you in exploring small, sustainable shifts that create meaningful change.

Francisca Carrasco - Compassionate Healing
Counsellor/Therapist, RCC, CCC. M.Psych
You may look capable on the outside, yet feel constantly tense, self-critical, or emotionally exhausted on the inside. I work with adults who are tired of pushing themselves and want a calmer, more grounded relationship with their thoughts and emotions. My therapy style is warm, structured, and collaborative, combining compassion-focused therapy and mindfulness to help you build inner safety, clarity, and resilience. I offer a supportive space where change happens gently, without judgment or pressure.

Lincoln Stoller
Counsellor/Therapist, PhD, CHt, CCPCP
I started classical guitar when I was 10 and mountaineering at 13. I quit high school after 11th grade, and worked as a NASA astronomer before I finished college. I earned a physics PhD—almost being expelled for insubordination—and started writing business software as a consultant for IT departments at middle-sized businesses. While I was having adventures in the jungle, the arctic, the Caribbean, Mongolia, New Zealand, Europe, and Central America, I became a snowboarder, scuba diver, paraglider, and soar plane pilot. I been married twice, have two sons, built two houses, and written many books on therapy, growth, and development. Combining science with psychedelics, I became an EEG brain trainer and researcher, practitioner of hypnotic Past Life Regression, sensory deprivation meditation, ayahuasca, and hypnosis. Psychotherapy, which I previously found to be too self involved, finally seemed worth my attention, so I became a psychotherapist. Now I focus on opening doors to meaning, personal growth, and larger states of awareness. I think this is what I was always looking for. Are you interested?

Michelle Iulianella Counselling & Psychotherapy
Counsellor/Therapist, BEd, MBA, MA, RCC
I work collaboratively with individuals and couples navigating challenges such as communication difficulties, emotional intimacy concerns, infidelity, life transitions, stress, anxiety, and depression. At the heart of my practice is the development of strong, trusting therapeutic relationships where clients feel both safe and empowered. I believe this foundation is essential for engaging in the honest, meaningful conversations that lead to genuine and lasting change.
My approach is active and goal-oriented, focused on creating meaningful progress while helping clients gain deeper insight, clarity, and a renewed sense of peace and direction.
For over a decade, I have supported clients both in person and online across Southern Vancouver Island and throughout British Columbia.

Victoria is British Columbia's capital city and a major retirement destination, giving it an older demographic profile than most Canadian cities — one that generates consistent demand for therapists working with aging, loss, caregiver stress, and the psychological dimensions of life transitions in later years. The city's government-worker culture, combined with the University of Victoria and Royal Roads University, creates a well-educated population that is generally comfortable seeking therapy and willing to engage in longer-term work. Island Health provides public mental health resources alongside a well-established private therapy community serving Oak Bay, Saanich, and the Inner Harbour area. Victoria's separation from Metro Vancouver by water means specialist therapist access can be limited in some areas, with telehealth filling an important gap for clients seeking a specific type of match.
